During my tenure at Pinstripe Alleyhell, during my entire time as a baseball fanIve never been shy about delving into the teams history and exploring the lives of its long roll call of players, both incredible and regrettable. We provide plenty of other coverage on the current-day activities of the teams, so I like having one spot per day on the schedule to open the ol books and tell a story.Whether its remembering championship teams, Top 100 players, or notable free agent signings, theres always something out there to explore. For the pastthreeyears, weve celebrated the 25th anniversary of the 1998-2000 Yankees dynasty by doing a diary on all their regular season and playoff activity. The final pages were written this past October, so its time for a new daily project.With that in mind, well ring in the new year by beginning the Yankees Birthdays series. Every day in 2026, well have a new Yankees figure to discuss whose birthday happened to fall on that day. Some days will feature far more famous stars than others! But that just adds to the challenge and our interest in the exercise. As a spoiler for today, thats exactly what youll see soon for January 1st.Happy new year and happy 365 days of Yankees birthdays!January 1: Charlie DevensJanuary 2: David ConeJanuary 3: Luis SojoJanuary 4: George SelkirkJanuary 5: Art FletcherJanuary 6: Don GullettJanuary 7: Alfonso SorianoJanuary 8: Jason GiambiJanuary 9: Ralph TerryJanuary 10: Del PrattJanuary 11: Loren BabeJanuary 12: IvnNovaJanuary 13: Darrell RasnerJanuary 14: Chet BrewerJanuary 15: Matt HollidayJanuary 16: Jack McDowellJanuary 17: Chili DavisJanuary 18: Michael PinedaJanuary 19: Fernando SeguignolJanuary 20: Kevin MaasJanuary 21: Andy HawkinsJanuary 22: Brian DayettJanuary 23: Johnny SturmJanuary 24: Neil AllenJanuary 25: Les NunamakerJanuary 26: Brian DoyleJanuary 27: Fred HeimachJanuary 28: Lyn LaryJanuary 29: John HabyanJanuary 30: Hiplito PeaJanuary 31: Duke MaasFebruary 1: Jazz Chisholm Jr.February 2:George HalasFebruary 3: Chicken HawksFebruary 4: Lefty DavisFebruary 5: Roger PeckinpaughFebruary 6: Babe RuthFebruary 7: Dmaso GarcaFebruary 8: Fritz PetersonFebruary 9: Clete BoyerFebruary 10: Allie ReynoldsFebruary 11: Csar CabralFebruary 12: Todd FrazierFebruary 13: Nathan EovaldiFebruary 14: Dmaso MarteFebruary 15: Russell MartinFebruary 16: Barry FooteFebruary 17: Wally PippFebruary 18: Joe GordonFebruary 19: Chris StewartFebruary 20: Tommy HenrichFebruary 21: Oscar AzcarFebruary 22: Ryne DurenFebruary 23: Elston HowardFebruary 24: Mike LowellFebruary 25: Paul ONeillFebruary 26: Johnny BlanchardFebruary 27: Ron HasseyFebruary 28: Bill HollandMarch 1: Oswaldo CabreraMarch 2: Miguel AndujarMarch 3: Willie KeelerMarch 4: Lefty ODoulMarch 5: Doug BirdMarch 6: Francisco CervelliMarch 7: Mike ArmstrongMarch 8: Jim BoutonMarch 9: Aaron BooneMarch 10: Steve HoweMarch 11: Bobby AbreuMarch 12: Darryl StrawberryMarch 13: Home Run BakerMarch 14: Butch WynegarMarch 15: Mike PagliaruloMarch 16: Curtis GrandersonMarch 17: Tim LollarMarch 18: Brian FisherMarch 19: Fritz BrickellMarch 20: Paul MirabellaMarch 21: Frankie MontasMarch 22: Rich MonteleoneMarch 23:Dellin BetancesMarch 24: Ernie ShoreMarch 25: Lee MazzilliMarch 26:Jos VizcanoMarch 27: Miller HugginsMarch 28: Vic RaschiMarch 29: Herb McQuaidMarch 30: Dick WoodsonMarch 31: Chien-Ming WangApril 1: Phil NiekroApril 2: Jon LieberApril 3: Art DitmarApril 4: Cameron MaybinApril 5: Wid ConroyApril 6: Ken ClayApril 7: Oral HildebrandApril 8:Catfish HunterApril 9: David RobertsonApril 10: Bob WatsonApril 11: Mark TeixeiraApril 12: Sammy VickApril 13: Kid ElberfeldApril 14: David JusticeApril 15: King ColeApril 16: Paul WanerApril 17: Zack ClaytonApril 18: Dennis RasmussenApril 19: Scott KamienieckiApril 20: Don MattinglyApril 21: Joe McCarthyApril 22: Jimmy KeyApril 23:Andruw JonesApril 24: Carlos BeltrnApril 25: Russ FordApril 26: Aaron JudgeApril 27: Enos SlaughterApril 28: Tom SturdivantApril 29: Sterling HitchcockApril 30: Jumbo BrownMay 1: Brandon ClaussenMay 2: George GilesMay 3: Red RuffingMay 4: Miguel CairoMay 5: Bob CervMay 6: Ivy AndrewsMay 7: Tom ZacharyMay 8: Art LpezMay 9: Chase HeadleyMay 10: Ed BarrowMay 11: Walt TerrellMay 12: Yogi BerraMay 13: John Ryan MurphyMay 14:Earle CombsMay 15: Alex VerdugoMay 16: Billy MartinMay 17: Carlos MayMay 18: Reggie JacksonMay 19: Gil McDougaldMay 20: Bobby MurcerMay 21: Andrew MillerMay 22: Tommy JohnMay 23: Buck ShowalterMay 24: Bartolo ColonMay 25:Bobby L.
